Ingredients

225g Assured plain flour

100g Assured butter

2/3 tbsp cold water

150g Yorkshire Wensleydale Assured cheese, grated/crumbled/ chopped

Half a Assured red onion, sliced thinly

4 sun dried tomatoes, finely chopped

2 Red Tractor Assured eggs

150ml Assured milk (not skimmed)

Half tsp dried basil

Salt & pepper to season

Method:

Pastry:

Combine the flour and butter in a food processor. Gradually add a little water as the machine works, until the mixture comes together.

Turn out onto a board, mould together into a ball firmly with your hands and wrap in clingfilm. Place in the fridge for at least 20 minutes.

Preheat the oven to 200c.

After this time, roll the dough out on a floured surface, and use it to line a greased flan/quiche tin

Line with parchment paper and baking beans, and blind bake for 15 minutes.

Remove from the oven and carefully remove the paper and beans.

Filling:

Scatter half of the cheese onto the pastry.

Spread the tomatoes and onion evenly over the cheese, then top with the remainder of the cheese.

In a bowl, beat the milk and eggs together, add the basil and season well.

Pour the mixture over the top and then place in the oven for 30 minutes until the top is golden brown and slightly firm to the touch.

Remove from the oven, allow to rest for around five minutes then turn out of the tin to serve and enjoy.
